I'm OK but the 3 ladies I had in my car last night/morning may be feeling a bit worse for wear !

Does ten register on that kind of scale?
spent the evening with neighbours who have kids, loads of teenagers making us feel old drinking what looked like dishwasher rinse aid . . . Champagne seemed like a very civilised option then! a decent breakfast has helped and a walk in this glorious sunshine should finish the recuperation job. HNY all |

reeling out the posh stuff again Gordon, My old mini van didn't have head lining . . . mind you, by the time I could afford a car I had my own flat. Gymnastic contortions became purely optional then

Strongest drink I had last night was a mug of hot milk! When I woke up it was past midnight, I couldn't be bothered to have a proper drink so just went to bed. Getting old?
Happy New Year all! |

Blimey, I woke up this morning to realise it was 2013 already! Last thing I remember it was still 2011!
Most strenuous thing I've done today is walk from the car to the restaurant for a celebratory luncheon, and I'll walk from the car into the Barge Inn for a celebratory pint a little later on. Then it's serious training for taking on Delta in the Woodcote 10k, maybe that will have to wait until tomorrow. Enjoy the rest of the holidays one and all, it's back to real life soon! |

We ventured to Winterton on Sea for walk. Took the horseless carriage rather than pony and trap. Joking apart spent as much time queuing for car park and cafe later when in need of a cuppa. Amazing what a bit of sunshine on Jan 1 does! |

Will you lot stop going on about sunshine!
Mostly grey and intermittently wet here........ Happy New Year to all anyway......have to decide whether to go to Autosport show now, or whether to make Race Retro the first event of the year....probably the latter |

Spooky thing just happened too me.I have allways wanted to find a copy of Ayrton Senna's principles of race driving.The books have been changing hands for over £100.00 so I have declined as got better things to do with the money.
Christmas comes this year and my son Stewart has bought me a copy so chuffed to bits.This afternoon Mrs Delta calls me in from workshop to give her a hand putting Christmas decorations away in the loft.So I am waiting for her to hand all the stuff up and start to look around through old picture albums and junk ect ect.I then find a race bag,hang on its not one of mine.I know, the race bag full of kit was left by one of my drivers from the USA over 10 years ago.Now you know whats comming up,yep!!!! in the bag is none other than a copy of the said book. Do I tell Mrs Delta????. " perhaps not. |

Best wishes to all for the new season, hope to be around a bit more.
Recently moved house so I have been far too busy these last few months. Everything should return to normal, if that is still an option for me. |
